According to the Iranian Chief Justice of West Azarbaijan, four of ten people arrested on November 2nd, 2023 have been executed for espionage, sabotage, and working for the Israeli Mossad.

The executed have been identified as Wafa Henare, Aram Omari, Rahman Parhazo and Mrs. Nasim Namazi. These four people were suspected of accepting payment from Mossad Intelligence Officers. They were suspected of setting fire to the cars and homes of Iranian security officials, collecting intelligence by means of photographs, and planning to assassinate and kidnap other security officials. These agents were suspected of operating throughout West Azarbaijan, Tehran and Hormozgan.
